There has been some talk of at
tempting to secure Railroad up the
Salt Creek Valley from Richmondale.
We have talked with farmers from
Liberty who think that Road across
to intersect the Ohio Southern would
be vastly more profitable. There is a
good coal region in Liberty awaiting
development. We know one man
who claims to have several hundred
acres underlaid with coal, and the
same thing applies to large portion
of Liberty Township. This might be
better than the Salt Greek Route, but
either would pay, and would add large
ly to the business industries of Jack
son, and would open up region now
practically shut out from Jackson in
the way of freights.

There are reports that prices of
property in Birmingham, Alabama,
have greatly decreased-even as much
as fifty per cent. If this has not al
ready been done it will be. The great
strength of the boom which made
Birmingham was in the fact that the
effort made to create a stir in the
world brought in capital which, hav-
ing once invested, remained. Such
investments, that is, manufactures
and business enterprises Of various
kinds, will succeed, because the town
and its people offer inducements to
the capitalists, rather than attempt to
thwart their purposes. The decrease
in the value of real estate has not
been because the property is valueless,
but because it has been held away up,
at three or four times it's value, for
speculative purposes. In such cases
there may be many chances to stick
Spectators, but somebody is going to
get left, every time, because somebody
will be caught holding the property
when the decline comes.

One beauty about Jackson, con-
sidered as a desirable place to locate,
is that man may move his family
into the town and settle down to the
enjoyment Of a town completed in all
that goes to make up first-class place.
The streets are in good order, paved,
and in the business part Of town
sprinkled. The place abounds in
pretty homes, and neat business
blocks. There is no dirt, and general
filth to struggle through in order to
build up home. The purchaser of
property may have an enjoyable home
in a very short time. There is no
rush, nor howl, about the immense
prices paid for real estate, but you
may quietly purchase beautiful build
ing sites, at reasonable rates, and Sc
cure beautiful home.

Jackson has one of the best syster

jackson has one Of the best systems
OF Sunday Schools, Of any town in
the State. The older people take a
deep interest in these Schools; and old
and young unite in getting all the
good possible out Of the lessons on
each succeeding Sunday. The Super
intendants are all earnest workers, the
pupils, under such conditions, cannot
but make rapid progress in the study
of the word. We do not know of a
better place for the instruction Of the
young. These schools embrace all de-
nominations, and we have one school
of no denomination-the mission"
School, which has large attendance.
AS our Schools and Churches increase
in effort and result, so the evil infu-
ences will to great, if not a CORES
ponding degree decrease, and the town
is improving on that line. There are
now less than one-half the number of
saloons here that there were a year
ago. Our Ministers are all men in the
prime of life, and earnest, active work.
ers, and the cause Of religion is pros
gering, right along. Jackson is a
splendid place to live in.

There is no telling what the min
eral resources of Jackson really are.
There is a vast territory yet undevel-
oped which is richly inlaid with iron
ore, and underlaid with coal. But
few years ago, when Harvey Wells
came down to Jackson and began
talking about extensive coal mines on
the present site Of Wellston, it caused
many expressions Of doubt by people
IN Jackson. But Mr.. Wells assured
the people that not only would he be
mining coal largely but there would
be more iron manufactured in Wells
ton in the next ten years than in
Jackson. Again our people laughed,
but Mr.. Wells predictions in this re-
gard came very near fulfllment. He
knew what he was talking about.
So, now, were some man to under
take to estimate the vast resources
underlying this region, in localities as
yet undeveloped, the people would
display a skepticism bordering on
mirth. Yet there is an array of
wealth underlying this section of
country, which no man can estimate.
These mineral lands extend up to the
corporate limits on all sides Of town.
The mineral industries of Jackson are
just beginning to be developed. Our
prosperity as city is just beginning.
There are wonderful possibilities
ahead for Jackson. What is neces-
sary now is an unselfsh public spirit
that looks to the building up of the
town rather than plucking it.

THE PLACE For MANUFACTURES !
A Few POINTS OF INTEREST TO MAN
UFACTURERS!

1t does not require any great amount
Of argument to convince any man en-
gagged in manufacturing interests that
all goods requiring the consumption
Of fuel and iron can be made a great
deal cheaper on the spot where these
materials are found than anywhere
else. Where there are facilities for
making long hauls Of raw materials,
there are equal facilities for shipping
finished manufactures, and it is GER
tainly better to make one handling,
and one shipment answer in putting
the goods on the market, than to ship
with two or three landings, the raw
materials, with the additional freights
and wastes. This is point that is
just now, more than ever, attracting
the attention of manufacturers. Let
us give as an illustration the large
manufactures of Springfield. Coal is
shipped from Jackson, one hundred and
eight miles, and a great deal shipped far
beyond Springfield. With factories
planted right on top of the coal mines,
with iron made on the spot, with the
cost of running machinery reduced to
an insignificant figure, it is certainly
patent to all that the production Of

In recent interview with a promi-
nent Democrat Of this region, pub
lished in an exchange, we notice the
laughably reckless remark that the
people are greatly enthused over the
good times brought by the wise ad-
ministration Of President Cleveland.
We hadn't heard it spoken Of in that
way. The general tone is that Grover
must get out Of that at the end of a
single term.

FULTON FURNACE DESTROYED! /!
And johnny Martin is Destroyed in the
Flames!

| Flames!
About half past nine o'clock on last
Wednesday night the whistle at Full
ton Furnace sounded an alarm, and
there was general rush in that direc-
ton. Almost simultaneously the fire
bell rang, and in very few moments
the engine was speeding towards the
flaming Furnace. Scarcely had the
alarm been given until the flames
were roaring clear to the top Of the
Westinghouse. The fire was caused
by the Furnace breaking through at
the bottom. The volume Of gas and
fire rushed upward, igniting every
thing instantly. The Westinghouse
and stock-house were soon a mass Of
flame, burning with wonderful ra-
pidity. 1t was but a minute or two
until the pot-house roof caught, and
all these buildings were destroyed.
The Furnace boys had pump and
hose at work trying to save the
engine-house, and the fre-engine,
throwing a strong stream was turned
against the sheds covering the boilers,
the fear being entertained that the
great heat might explode the boilers.
These buildings we're soon made safe,
and the Fire Company soon put out
the burning frames, the hosting
house having burned and fallen. The
flames were all extinguished by mid
night, except some coal that had
caught in the stock-house.
It was known that Johnny Martin,
the top-fller, was on top at the time
the fire broke out, and he was given
up as lost, as no aid could possibly
reach him. He had been seen by
several persons to run around the top,
as though trying to save himself, but
had not gotten far until he fell, and
perished. The heat was so intense
that nothing could have lived for any
length of time. After the flames had
been so far subdued as to make it
possible, an attempt was made to as
certain the fate of Martin. Ladders
were secured and lashed together.
These we're placed against the stack,
and Lot Oliver ascended to the
"apron" above. He discovered the
remains of Martin, just as most people
on the opposite side from
the point where the flame first as
cended. The body was burned into
an unrecognizable mass, one hand
burned off, and the limbs drawn up
wonderfully. John Shanks and John
Magoon next ascended, and the three
men placed the body in quilt and
lowered it by means Of a rope.
The deceased was young man, and
had not been married a great while,
leaving a wife and one child. He
married a daughter Of 'Hiel Bruce.
His brother and father stood by and
saw the burning Of the buildings, yet
were powerless to aid him. In fact
be was killed almost instantly. The
loss to the Globe Company will not
perhaps amount to more than eight
thousand to ten thousand dollars. The
worst feature aside from the loss Of
The mans life, is that the loss throws
i large number of men out Of employ
ment at the Furnace and the mines

The friedrich factories of Oak Hill
have been running steadily for years,
giving employment to large number
of men. Tt is not claimed that there
are any phenomenal dividends declar-
ed by the directors, but they have
doubtless been doing a reasonably
good business, and have kept things
moving. Such enterprises help any
community, in that they furnish en-
ployment to the people. Any enter
prise that does this, is a blessing to
the community in which it is located.
An enterprise employing fewer men,
and remaining idle from one-half to
three-fourths of the time, cannot be
said to be an advantage in that it
brings about it class of hard work
ing men, who have no capital but
their muscle, and whose families must
suffer when thrown out of employ
ment. Where man gets but barely
enough to live on when working full
time, it is scarcely possible for him to
keep up when only working half-time.
This is one point to be considered
when estimating the advantage or dis
advantage of an enterprise in a COM
munity. The first thing to be consid-
cred in connection with a proposed
enterprise is, can it find a market for
its wares? Second, can it be run
and be depended upon to fur
nish employment to a certain number

the goods would cost far less, and the
sale be far more profitable, than at a
point far removed from the coal and
iron fields.
1t is ever the aim of capital to seek
the most profitable investment, that
which promises to make the greatest
returns in profits. To this end, Jack
son offers attractions that should ar
rest and enlist the attention of manu-
facturers, and it seems passing strange
that it should be considered necessary
to call attention to this point. Beau
tifully located, with splendid drain
age, with an inexhaustible supply of
splendid water, with fuel and ores all
around it, it does seem that Jackson
is the ideal town for manufacturing
industries.
There are twenty-five coal mines
centering, and making their headquar-
ters, in Jackson. All grades of coal
are to be obtained at the lowest possi-
BILE figures, from the rich and unsur-
passed Jackson Hill Coal, the very
best for CRATE and Office purposes, to
the celebrated Jackson Shaft Coal, a
splendid article, unsurpassed for man
ufacturing purposes. On the south
west side Of town is a beautiful site
for a large mandatory requiring the
use of iron and coal, blast furnace,
an opened coal mine, beautiful situat-
ed yards, a graded switch to the build
ings, and an abundance of splendid
water.
On the north side Of town is situat-
ed the fine sand-cliffs, a most beauti-
full article Of fine white sand, pro-
nounced by experts good article for
the manufacture of glass.
At several points near town there
are great beds Of fire clay of fine
quality, and in fact it is scarcely worth
while to attempt to enumerate our
great natural resources. There is ''no
end to them The manufacture Of
goods from fire clay will be an impor-
tant one the near future. There is a
great variety Of useful wares made
from this material. In addition to
tiling, grate-backs, and the ordinary
fre-bricks, the subject Of paving the
streets with blocks Of this material is
attracting attention in some of the
cities. Efforts are being made now to
form company for the purpose of
opening the clay-beds north Of town.
There is no direction from Jackson,
where there is not to be found an
abundance of water, near at hand.
The town is connected with the
whole railway system, and facilities
for shipment are unsurpassed. The
other attractions Of the town are
splendid. We have splendid schools,
with an abundance Of room for the
and comfort Of the pu-
pills. Jackson is well known as mu-
sical center, and taking all things into
consideration, there is no town offer
ing greater advantages for the raising
Of families, and the locating Of homes,
5han Jackson. It is a good town to
i've in, profitable town in which to
conduct a manufacturing business.
The expenses Of manufactures must
necessarily be less in every respect in
Jackson, than in the larger towns and
,ities, more remote from the raw ma
;erials. Capitalists should consider
;hese things.
The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1887-06-23

Among the things that go to make
up the town of Jackson, and it's at
fractions to capital, we may mention
an immense array Of frst-class dry
goods stores, large number Of gro
Gerry stores, several bakeries, three
large hardware stores, three large
stove and hollow-ware stores, two
book stores, two hotels, several board
ing houses, clothing stores equal to
any in the cities, countless shops of
different kinds, two large Touring
mills, one Of them roller-process, one
woolen-mili, two planning g-mills, and
but what's the use? We might go
on at great length describing the
business industries Of Jackson. Suf-
flee it that it is the best town in Ohio
for the investment Of capital.

REPUBLICAN COUNTY CONVENTION !.
Next Saturday the Fateful Day to Many
Candidate

On next Saturday the Republican
County Convention will be held in
Jackson. This need not be a cause
for any great sensation on the face OF
human affairs, yet there are some
serious and important considerations
attaching to it for some people
Somebody is going to be nominated
for office. That means that some
body else is gong to be defeated.
With this condition Of things in view,
every candidate should come into the
Convention with his system prepared
for anything that may turn up. All
cannot be nominated, but that is not
sufficient ground for any lack Of har-
mony when somebody is nominated.
Our friends should proceed to secure
delegations in such a manner that
there will be no possible ground for
complaint, from anybody. These
minor squabbles about locality, the
manner Of choosing delegates, and
like questions, have cost the Republi-
cans some offices heretofore. These
should be avoided as far as possible
this year. When the nominations
are made, the battle is only begun.
We know the Democratic tactics
that of uniting on one man and striv-
ing to elect him. It is time this thing
was stopped, but it is not altogether
an easy thing to stop: The more the
party permits this thing to go on, the
harder it will be to change. The
proper thing, therefore, is to elect the
whole Republican ticket. This result
can be achieved in but one way-by
the fair and square nomination Of
good ticket. Unless this is done,
there is no use in attempting to fix
up differences afterward. And we
believe it will be done. There are in
dications that the Convention will be
a harmonious one, and the campaign
a successful one. To this end every
should devote his earnest
effort. There should be harm onious.
earnest campaign, with the success of
Of the Republican party as the main
object, always remembering that the
party can only succeed by
methods worthy Of its great history.

The Pipestone Show.

Special to the Globe
PlPEsToNE,. Minn., Sept. 29.-The
second day of the Pipestone county fair
was grand success. The weathes was
all that could be asked, while the crowd
in attendance was much larger than even
the fair officers expected. The eXcur
sion train from Heron Lake brought up
wards of 80 visitors to the city. The
premiums were all awarded this morn
ing. This afternoon the stock ON the
ground was paraded. The races this
afternoon were very fine. Black Tom
won the three-minute race. Kilkambell
won the free-fOr-all running race. Grey
Hen won the pony. The baby prize was
taken by Edna Hazel Dem
hard, of Trosky, bright
little cherub of ten months. An old
lady fell from wagon in the fair
grounds this afternoon and was Seri-
Ously injured. The management has
decided to run the fair another day, to-
morrow, although most of the exhibits
have been taken from the grounds. The
five-mile ladies' running race has been
postponed until tomorrow. Two young
ladies, one of this city and one of Sioux
Falls, are to be the contestants. AL
though the fair will not prove finan-
cial success, all are satisfied, as it is the

owing to the fine weather for threShing.
The display of vegetables was very
